Project Idea: An app that generates spontaneous, surprising trips including travel route, suggested food and scenic stops, gas stations, rest stops, and other necessities for a road trip, and the final destination with lodging options. The user can input their desired type of trip, travel radius, and duration of trip, and then select from randomly generated adventures. The app will then begin mapping the user and take them on a spontaneous adventure.

Group Box-and-Arrow User Flow:
Process:
The process is going very well, we decided on an idea pretty quickly and we are all excited to start building the interface. We shared a document and are asking/answering questions on a slack group chat. We want to meet as a group again on zoom to discuss our plans further but right now we have what we need finished. Andrea created a great box-and-arrow user flow that combined many of our ideas, for our single group flow a few more screens were added to Andrea's user flow because it already had the majority of what we needed.
